quirk of fate

static event perhaps, or some random piece of iron filings/manufacturing
solder balls shook loose and went where it should not have

these things usually just dont fail like u describe

or could be one of those chip failures of the 1 in ten million of the MTBF
actualy occured, & u the winner!

i would surmise it was a power glitch or out of bounds power supply
excursion that did the nasty.

M # CT-32SL14J Ch # AP 411, relay just clicks on, & off repeatedly at
plug in. Nothing
gone in the power supply, or horizontal, & the SMPS isn't oscillating,
getting almost no
output on all secondaries. Looks like the Micro, & EEPROM are bad, &
Panasonic Tech
just confirmed this. The Micro is a 64 pin QIP. Pretty hard to change.
Have you guys seen
many of these sets go bad like this? Thanks, Dani.
